ABOUT US

At RE Botanicals™, we believe that healthy soil creates healthy plants, healthy people, and a healthy climate. Our Pure Organic Hemp Apothecary harkens back to the traditions of plant extract apothecaries. We curate only the highest quality golden full-spectrum plant-based hemp extracts from organic US grown hemp. Our founder, John W. Roulac’s 20-year legacy in hemp and personal commitment to healthy living and regenerative agriculture ensure that we honor the artisan apothecary tradition and deliver quality tinctures, capsules and topicals. Crafted in small batches blending organic MCT oil, our organic hemp gives an authentic and elegant experience. No pesticides, solvents or GMOs.

We recently merged with Conway South Carolina-based Palmetto Harmony to create the first certified-organic vertically-integrated flower-to-bottle supply chain. Palmetto Harmony was borne of a mother’s desire to alleviate her child’s debilitating seizures. Pharmaceuticals had failed Janel Ralph’s daughter Harmony. However, Janel knew there was hope in hemp for Harmony and others like her with pure organically grown hemp CBD. Janel was a driving force behind the 2017 legalization of hemp cultivation in South Carolina.

We are now proudly one company and two brands.
